[edit] Sriram Das

Sriram Das (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Per WP:N and WP:RS. Non-notable film producer. Has not gained significant coverage by reliable sources. Only reference is IMDB. -- Wikipedical (talk) 06:07, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, as nominator. -- Wikipedical (talk) 06:07, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Couldn't have said it better. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 06:14, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep – Sorry to be in the minority here, but unless I am looking up the wrong "Sriram Das", I could find multiple independent, verifiable and reliable sources as shown here. [1] The article does need a rewrite, but could easily be expanded. Shoessss |  Chat  14:12, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment. No need to apologize. However, most of the links that Google churns out is the same profile shared by all the news-outlets. The profile is just a list of the movies where he got some some sort of minor production credit. That's not considered "significant coverage." This Hollywood Reporter article might help him though, but I still don't think that it makes the coverage significant. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 14:41, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
    • Agreed. There are some reliable sources but in order to establish notability, there must be significant coverage, which means according toWP:N that sources address the subject directly in detail, and no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than trivial but may be less than exclusive. Listings of film credits is trivial. -- Wikipedical (talk) 18:43, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. I agree with the above that this time the article does not, and from the search can not, establish notability with verifiable references. SorryGuy  Talk  08:56, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
